(This is an update from this story about the demand letters sent by Kelora 'to most of the US's'eCommerce'sites) A form letter about some other topic, filled with fluff and nonsense about speeding up the'patent'process to bring products to market faster and spur innovation , yes, that's what the white house decided to send in...

The hearing which was originally scheduled for November 17th has been pushed back to December 1st. After a hearing the judge usually takes 4-8 weeks to rule; a week after the hearing you will be able to request a transcript. As soon as we get the transcript or any other news we will help distribute...

Update from Wednesday, May 23 2012: The claims by Kelora against Ebay, Microsoft, Adobe, Target, etc have been invalidated. We did an updated post here which is mostly just other site's commentary about the ruling that our readers found. I am not a lawyer, so this isn't legal advise, but if you get a letter...

This is part one in a series of research reports on property crime in America. The purpose of these reports are not to incite fear or "fear monger" in an attempt to convince people to purchase our products. In fact, many of our points will suggest the opposite. Video Surveillance certainly has a place in...

Homeland Security Watch has an excelent post up written by Lynda A. Peters, who is the City Prosecutor in the Chicago Corporation Counsel's Office.

How to do all those things in Ubuntu Unity that everyone says you can't do in Ubuntu Unity These points came from a bunch of my (Matthew's) reddit comments, but since they will eventually become unavailable and they were a bit spread out and they didn't have pictures, here's a permanent place for those points....

The opinions listed below are from Matthew, one of the owners of SCW. We might have a rebuttal from one of our other owners. "Do you think "job creators" are more likely or less likely to create a job if he/she is taxed less and thus has more money?"'I was asked the other day. This...

The security industry spends a great deal of time talking about technical issues from SAS, encryption, user access, and server capabilities to entry access points, live monitoring, and video feeds. We might want to also spend some time reading comic books. In comics, there are super heroes and super villains. As security companies we have...

Here at SCW, we donate to open source software, created a political demonstration website against Canadian Usage Based Billing, and constantly try to balance the needs of security with our beliefs in freedom and the openness of information. So, we are going to take a break from talking about security, to talk about ubuntu, linux,...

Harris County Fire Marshal's Office is asking for anyone who has any knowledge of the situation surrounding the identity of an arsonist who set a teenage boy's car on fire.

Don't stop the pressure. Although the Canadian government has promised to reverse the decision , they haven't done anything yet. Keep hitting http://www.antiubb.com/what-can-i-do/ hard! The goal isn't to 'do something' (quoting the interior minister). It's to stop regional monopolies from destroying entire segments of the world economy. For all we know, "doing something" might just...
